Citrus Limon Peel Extract

Citrus Limon Peel Extract is derived from the outer rind of lemon fruit and contains a complex mixture of bioactive compounds including limonene, citral, flavonoids (hesperidin, eriocitrin), and vitamin C. The extract is valued for its brightening properties due to natural AHAs and vitamin C content, along with its characteristic fresh citrus aroma that can reduce the need for additional fragrance. Formulators choose it for its multifunctional benefits: antioxidant protection from flavonoids, mild astringent properties, and natural preservation support from its acidic pH and antimicrobial terpenes.
